I have to say, you called it. I remember a couple of years ago: noticeable difference between any 240 and late model 220 bats....and only the Louisvilles seemed to perform. I remember you saying manufacturers will figure out how to get the insane performance with the new stamp, just like they did with when the 220's came out and it seems to be the case.
That's where I feel like it's our job to be as unbiased as possible for you guys, to make sure you know what you're getting from a durability standpoint with these bats. I'll never understand the people that watch the reviews and then go and buy said bat and complain that it failed when you saw it failed fast in the review. If you need something to hold compression, this isn't going to be the play. There are still bats out there that can hold compression and hit well though.
